Description
This illustrated book printed on art paper profiles some of the most delicious delicacies from Punjab.
The punjabis are a vigorous people, fond of eating, working and merrymaking. They are people with robust appetites. Punjabi tandoori cooking is one of the most popular cuisines in the world. Today, most five-star hotels in India, and reputed Indian restaurants around the world, have tandoori kebabs, tandoori prawns and assorted tandoori breads on their menus.
Punjab's winter is characterized by its golden mustard fields. It is during this season that Punjabis eat their national delicacy - steaming bowls of spicy Sarson ka Saag (mustard greens) topped with melting blobs of fresh butter served with makai ki roti (maize flour bread).
Punjabi cuisine is not only delicious, but a visual and olfactory delight as well. Crisp, tangy, spicy and wholesome - take 100 gm of adventurous spirit, deep-fry in 10tbsp of enthusiasm, season with a pinch of experimentation, and create your own Punjabi gourmet delight!
